40. The dislike the communism but not the communist question
Edited on Thu Feb-09-06 10:04 AM by PhilipShore
Communism appeals to the poor masses... and I agree with you; as a liberal democrat, I ask similar questions when, I am confronted by a communist and/ or communism. As a liberal democrat, I respect their rights to be a communist, but I disagree with their world view called communism.

I have not been a protestor for sometime now -- but from my review of the media, some communism run groups; have become front groups for communists, that are encouraged by the GOP to be provocateurs for the purpose that is favorable to the GOP -- but not a true democracy. See the Nader presidential campaign in 2000--when GOP operatives paid for anti-Gore Nader ads in swing states -- on Election Day.

It is frustrating, because in their zeal to help, they actually stifle the true democratic process, that is part of being and American called liberalism.
